Micellar water *What is micellar water? Which one to choose?* It’s getting more and more popular, and you’re not sure what it’s for? I will try to give you the answers in this article. Read on to find out why your skin needs it. ***Micellar water is not a lotion or milk for removing makeup. It is water of neutral PH value in which micelles swim.*** It is named after the small oily molecules (micelles) that are obtained from natural sugars. One end of these molecules is hydrophilic and attracts water, while the other is lipophilic, ie. attracts oils and fat particles and dissolves them. *****Micelles act as a magnet that attracts all impurities from the face.*****

Micellar water is special in that it combines the freshness of pure water (does not contain calcium, magnesium and metal cations) and the effectiveness of makeup remover oil. Combined into one product, these two ingredients enable the removal of grease mixed with impurities and the thorough erasure of even waterproof make-up. It does not irritate the skin and does not need to be rinsed. **What is micellar water for?** As it has a calming effect, micellar water is especially appreciated by women who are looking for a mild cleanser for facial skin. Formulated without soap, often odorless, it allows the pH value to be maintained, which is suitable for all skin types. A gentleness that does not diminish its cleansing power is a quality that especially emphasizes it. Makeup foundation, waterproof mascara, permanent lipstick, no problem - this water is fresh and mild removes everything and suits all women. It is especially suitable for those who are too busy and do not have much time for their daily routine. Today, there are a large number of different brands so you can always choose the one that suits you. The popularity of this product is supported by the fact that cosmetic companies have developed a whole range of these products intended for different target groups. Thus, there is baby micellar water for cleansing sensitive children's skin, bio micellar water that is certified as completely natural, as well as through various brands of this product. Almost every cosmetic house has its own micellar water. It is especially useful when we find ourselves in a situation such as a trip, camping and the like where there is no water available, it is enough to have a bottle of your favorite micellar water and a couple of cotton swabs. *****It is not a mistake to wash yourself after cleansing your face with micellar water, but I leave that choice to you.***** **What is the composition of micellar** **water**? The main constituent of micellar water are micelles, tiny, oily molecule scavengers that are immersed in water. These particles have the ability to attract grease and dirt particles. The water in which the micelles swim is soft water, neutral PH values and does not contain residues of heavy metals, chlorine and the like. Water and micelles are the two main ingredients, in addition to this, and depending on the manufacturer and the type of skin for which it is intended, micellar water usually contains citric acid, glycerin, rose water extract, essential oils… *****A good product must have all the ingredients on the label written precisely. Choose sulfate-free ones.***** **How is micellar water used?** Facial cleansing has never been easier. Pour a few drops of micellar water on a cotton swab so that it is moist. You run a damp swab over your face. You will see the dirt and remnants of makeup that have passed from your face to the tuff. To remove mascara, hold a soaked swab for a few seconds on the eyelid and then gently wipe down over the lashes. You can have clean skin anywhere and at any time of the day with the help of micellar water. Don't worry, it doesn't have to replace the complete facial hygiene you're used to, but it will add one big plus. We give you a few suggestions on how to add this preparation to your daily routine. **Morning facial cleansing** The person should be washed at least twice a day. Although we think that our face is relatively clean in the morning because we thoroughly removed the makeup the night before and all the impurities, the water alone will not be enough because it does not dissolve fat. Morning washing is important to remove the fat that the skin produces during the night. We need a product that will deeply degrease the pores. Micellar water is a quick and gentle way to enter a new day with a fresh radiant face that will not glow until breakfast. The skin will not be dry and tight. **Makeup removal** You can use micellar water to remove makeup. You can get rid of a dozen different bottles, because now this one product is enough. Prepare your face for the night quickly, easily and without aggressive rubbing. Clean pores without fat and makeup residue are the most important condition for night revitalization of facial skin. Pay special attention to the area around the eyes. **Clean your face after training** Since cleansing your face with micellar water does not require you to have running water, this is a great way to remove sweat and impurities from your face after a gym or fitness trip. This is very important so that sweat and sebum do not mix and clog the pores and also because the circulation after training is the best and the skin needs to be ensured that it can breathe. *****You can't overdo cleansing your face with micellar water.***** **Did you know that micellar water was invented in Paris a few decades ago?** The water there was hard and aggressive to the delicate skin of the face. The Parisians needed washing water that would thoroughly cleanse and nourish the face at the same time. Thanks to them, women around the world today enjoy the benefits of this product. In the sea of different preparations, it is important to choose micellar water that does not contain metals and dangerous preservatives. Choose a product for dry and sensitive, normal or oily skin! I hope you found this article interesting and useful. Be beautiful, take care of and nourish your skin!
